HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Bugleweed Mint Flavor by TerraVita

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains 1 active ingredient: bugleweed glycerite liquid extract. The inactive ingredients are glycerin (which carries the extract) and mint flavor.

It's a liquid formulation, so you get the herb in a concentrated extract form rather than as a dried powder or capsule.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Bugleweed's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: mild overactive thyroid symptoms.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hyperthyroidism, Premenstrual syndrome (PMS), Thyroid function, Heart palpitations, Anxiety.
  • The closest evidence on file: Bugleweed is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Hyperthyroidism (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Bugleweed is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

The evidence on bugleweed isn't established in our data. We hold insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for hyperthyroidism, insomnia, or premenstrual syndrome — the conditions it's often marketed for.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work; it means the research we have access to isn't robust enough to say one way or the other.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Bugleweed

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Bugleweed may affect how your thyroid works, so it should only be used under the guidance of a healthcare provider. The safety data advises against using it during pregnancy.

Additionally, bugleweed may reduce prolactin (a hormone involved in milk production) and may lower the amount of milk you produce, so it should not be used while breastfeeding.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Bugleweed

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Bugleweed.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 16 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

If you take thyroid hormones or thyroid replacement medication, check your specific drug with the interaction tool on this page before adding bugleweed to your routine. The product may reduce how well your thyroid medication works.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.

This is a single-ingredient liquid extract meant for people interested in bugleweed's traditional uses. If you take thyroid medication, you'll want to check with your pharmacist before starting — the interaction is real.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding are not times to use this product. Anyone with thyroid concerns should use it only under a doctor's supervision.
